For Liverpool, a lot of their play was around the quick and versatile Mo Salah who came into this game having scored over 44 goals in all competitions and with a lot of attention focused on him to guide the Reds to their first major trophy under Jurgen Klopp.

In the 27th minute, the Egyptian Maestro was substituted after an injury that he sustained in a collision with Sergio Ramos. The circumstances under which Salah got injured has gotten a lot of attention with many suggesting that the Spanish International intended to injure the Liverpool talisman.
